Sorry: I wanted to follow your advice, but made a mess of it.

This is what I wanted to write:

if self is SArray { … }
But the compiler warns me: Cast from ‘SBase.Type’ to unrelated type 'SArray' 
always fails.
It is right: the test always fails. And wrong: they are NOT unrelated: SArray 
is subclass of SBase.

The test is in SBase, which has a subclass SArray, which has subclasses 
SArray1, SArray2, …

I am still using Swift < 3.

Kind regards,

Gerriet.
